Whom Shall I Fear?
By Kathleen Isabela Calaunan I accepted Christ when I was 11. Before that, I had been attending church, just going through the motions. But deep down, I knew that there was so much more. When I chose to trust in Jesus, I guess it’s pretty safe to say that I felt somewhat relieved. It felt [...]

When You’re Misunderstood . . .
